The primary objective of a smart city is to optimize city functions and promote economic growth, while also improving the quality of life for citizens by using smart technologies and data analysis. Within this context, this article presents a learning scenario which is built with the "ThingLink" computer tool. This learning scenario was applied in an educational context of teaching Spanish as a foreign language. Active methodologies have been used so that students, at their own pace, with the help of the teacher, could not just develop subject-specific skills, but also transversal skills, in a perspective of education for an informed citizenship, interventional and responsible. A significant global improvement of 14.39 % in students' performance was verified, the number of grades below 50% was greater in the test applied before the completion of the learning activities, and the number of maximum grades was lower in the test applied before the completion of the learning activities.
